Ashoke Pandit is praised by Rohit Shetty for defeating the land mafia after a ten-year battle

In Juhu Scheme, Mumbai, filmmaker Rohit Shetty dedicated a garden. He also commended filmmaker and FWICE member Ashoke Pandit for his ten-year battle against an alleged land mafia to reclaim the area for the people. In Juhu, Rohit also resides.

Ashoke Pandit discussed the land in a video he posted on Twitter before the ceremony. He claimed that land had been illegally taken by builders, and that it had taken local residents and campaigners ten years to fight to reclaim it. He added that we didn’t permit structures like the Twin Towers in Noida to be built just to be dismantled afterwards.

He posted the clip and stated, “Juhu’s residents are now celebrating their triumph over the land mafia. After more than ten years of conflict, we managed to turn the area into a lovely garden. It is a project of our energetic MLA @AmeetSatam Ji, and Rohit Shetty, a director, will inaugurate it.”

Rohit congratulated everybody there for aiding Ashoke in the struggle and remarked, “It was your battle, and Ashoke Pandit was the leader. I’m only here to stand behind you all. I’m pleased with what you all have accomplished thanks to your tenacity “.

At the ceremony, Ashoke also made a statement about how difficult it was to resist such land sharks. “We are grateful to the director Rohit Shetty for launching the community garden in Juhu Scheme, where he also resides. The result of the citizens’ struggle against the land mafia is the garden. For ten years, the locals campaigned to restore the garden. The stunning garden, which was paid for by our vivacious BJP MLA Ameet Satam, put an end to this conflict “.

Added he, “It’s a dream come true for the locals who toiled tirelessly to save this vast open area, a public garden that was really swallowed up by the construction crew to build a skyscraper. It’s a great day for the regular man, so I’m really grateful that the media came out to cover the event today.” BJP Corporators Sudha Singh and Rohan Rathod, as well as architect PK Das, all attended the official celebration.

In 2017, Ashoke Pandit and a few others in the vicinity are said to have taken on the state government and municipal corporation and successfully reclaimed the land for usage as an open space.

Allu Arjun was ‘unnecessarily dragged’ into the Pushpa 2 stampede scandal, according to Boney Kapoor: “The crowd was the only reason for it.”

Boney Kapoor has said that it was wrong to drag Allu Arjun in the Sandhya Theatre stampede case, adding that the death of the fan happened due to the crowd.
Filmmaker Boney Kapoor has lent his weight behind Telugu star Allu Arjun in connection with his recent legal troubles linked to the death of a fan at the premiere of his film, Pushpa 2: The Rule. Boney says that Arjun was ‘unnecessarily dragged’ in the case when the death was only due to the large crowd gathered there.

Boney Kapoor defends Allu Arjun

Speaking at the Galatta Plus roundtable for filmmakers, Boney detailed his introduction to South Indian fans’ mania for the big stars. “When I first saw, Ajith’s film releasing at 1 in the morning. I was shocked to see 20-25k people outside the theatre. After I came out of the show around 3.30-4am, there were still that many people outside. I am told the same thing happens with films of Rajinikanth, Chiranjeevi, or present-day stars like Jr NTR, Ram Charan, Mahesh Babu,” he said.

Linking it to the incident for which Allu Arjun was arrested, Boney then added, “Ticket rates are inflated on the first two days or at least the first day for extra shows. That is why this situation has arisen where unnecessarily Allu Arjun was dragged and blamed for the death of a fan. It was only because of the crowd that had gathered to see the film.”

What is the Pushpa 2 stampede case

On December 4, the eve of Pushpa 2’s release, a special show of the film was kept for the fans at Hyderabad’s Sandhya Theatre. Arjun reached the theatre himself with co-star Rashmika Mandanna and wife Sneha Reddy. Police say that due to the star’s presence, crowd gathered at the theatre, leading to a stampede-like situation, which caused the death of a 35-year-old woman. The state government has claimed that Arjun appeared at the theatre despite not being permitted to and refused to leave after being told of the situation. Arjun has denied the allegations.

The actor was arrested last month on the charges of culpable homicide among other things. But he was released the following day after the Telangana High Court granted him interim bail. The case is currently under investigation.

About Pushpa 2: The Rule

Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2: The Rule stars Allu Arjun, Rashmika, and Fahadh Faasil. The sequel to the 2021 hit, Pushpa: The Rise, part 2 has been an even bigger box office success. As of January 1, the film has earned ₹1760 crore worldwide, making it the third-highest-grossing Indian film ever.
